  1. I would put the 3D molds in the BS Forum so it will get the most views. After that I can move them to an appropriate Forum, leaving a link in BS Forum so they can be easily found. Jimmy
  2. https://dadsengineparts.com/dep/productview.php?product_id=tank filter Jimmy
  3. Dad aka Randy Gaines, a long time trusted member and part supplier for our cars offers this on his website: https://dadsengineparts.com/dep/productview.php?product_id=Inline Fuel filt Jimmy
  4. There will be families there so yes it is appropriate for all ages. Many family activities to do in PF and Gatlinburg is just a few minutes away. Look forward to seeing y'all there. Jimmy
  5. When it falls on its face around 3500 willl it pick back up? It could be the vacuum advance. Do you know how to test it? Jimmy
  6. The list of ports (22 in all) 1. Vacuum Retard Diaphram (directly on top of the distributor) 2. Top Port on the TB, right where the OVCP meets the TB 3. Secondary Air Cleaner Assembly (black box on the drivers side of the VC) 4. Thermo Valve (2 ports) 5. EGR (3 ports) 6. SACA Solenoids (5 ports) 7. Main Vacuum source (3 ports) 8. Bottom port, this feeds the vac storage, cruise, and runs to the vac pump in front 9. Vacuum Storage (not pictured), mounted to the side of the shock tower 10. Cruise Control (not pictured), mounted to the front of the shock tower 11. Vacuum pump (not pictured), mounted right beside the drivers headlight 12. Purge Control Valve (2 ports), directly under the aircan Now, depending on what you're wanting to do with your car, your position on the environment, and whether or not you need a smog test to get a state inspection, it's possible to remove some of the vacuum lines and clean up the engine bay a LOT. For a pure race car you'd probably just need 1 stock line (slightly relocated), that'd be a line running from the top of the TB (labeled #2), to the Vacuum Retard Diaphram (labeled #1), this is the only line that is an absolute necessity. However, if you want, for example, your inside head & foot vents to work properly, you'll need to keep the line running from the bottom of the TB (labeled #8 ) going to the Vacuum Storage canister (labeled #9) (+ the single, small vacuum line running from it's nearest "T" into the firewall [not pictured or labeled]). Since this comes up frequently I'll address it here, the vac port you use for a BOV is labeled Main Vacuum Source (#7), you'll use the one closest to the firewall if you're looking at it from the drivers side fender. If you need a smog test to pass a state inspection you'll probably need to keep everything, each vacuum assisted item has its place. If you've removed the catalytic converters you won't be needing the Secondary Air Cleaner Assembly (labeled #3), it supplies fresh air to the catalysts.

  8. The reverse switch mounted on the transmission has a small ball bearing in it. Is the ball bearing there? Jimmy
  9. Looking forward to seeing everyone there. My reservations are from Thursday til Sunday, 7/24-7/27 at Econo Lodge PF Riverside. Jimmy
  10. Generally fuel pressure should be ~38 psi when not in boost. Pressure should rise one psi per pound of boost. ( e.g. 5 pounds of boost should have 38 psi plus 5 or 43 psi of fuel pressure). Jimmy
  11. Check the float iin the fluid reservior and ensure it moves freely up and down. Jimmy
  12. Accounts have been merged and status upgraded from Newbie. Jimmy
